I have set up this page and hope that anyone interested in this remarkable woman will add information. I have tried to separate information about her from information about her husband, but this is difficult since most information about her comes from books and other materials about her husband and other people that she knew.

It should be noted that one source, Max Heyman, makes a mistake in his biography of ERS Canby when he says that Lew Wallace wrote an article about Mrs. Canby for the New York Times in 1873. As I note in the article, the tribute was written by Mrs. Wallace, and though I do not note that it appeared in the Indianapolis daily, I leave out Heyman's claim that it appeared in the Times. Goes to show that even good sources make mistakes. Milesnfowler 16:16, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
